Vintage Vitreous China Pedestal Sink Base – 6⅜" W x 5" D x 23⅝" T

Description :
This vintage vitreous china pedestal sink base once supported a wall-mounted or console-style basin and exemplifies early-to-mid 20th-century bathroom craftsmanship. With its clean vertical lines, square top, and gently flared foot, the piece offers a sturdy yet elegant form suitable for restoration or repurposing. The white enamel glaze remains smooth and glossy with light surface wear and some minor edge marks consistent with age and use.
